Presenting at Microsoft User Groups

2012 started, isn’t it?

On 19th of January I together with a colleague of mine – Ivan Donev(twitter|blog) will be presenting at Microsoft SQL Server User Group Bulgaria. We are going to be talking about Policy Based Management in SQL Server:

So, if you’re interested in the subject, hope to see you at 19:00 at Microsoft’s office.
